WebForms: Now Anyone, Anywhere
Can Complete Your Forms

Our powerful new add-on, WebForms, allows you to create and send functional Appenate apps to ad hoc users to complete via their web browser.

For example, a tradesman performing your annual machinery service can now complete your safety survey form via a web browser on his mobile device, without installing the Appenate app. This opens up a ton of new possibilities for you as an Appenate customer – without worrying about once-off license fees.

A Task Management System That Makes Sense

Managing tasks out in the field doesn’t need to be time-consuming. Automate task flows – complete with push notifications, view task maps, set minimum requirements for completion and much more. 

You can also set up recurring tasks and view current active tasks along with their status. Linking tasks to certain apps or forms is also straightforward, and goes a long way to keeping your workforce focused, organized and productive. 

Transfer Real-Time Data Directly
Into Your Existing Systems

Our Connectors will help you link up with tools like PowerBI, Email, Salesforce and many others. For everything else, we have a REST API that’s capable of linking to any web service with an exposed API.

This means you can integrate your business with your entire tool stack without building APIs from scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

Yes, you get a full-featured free trial. You can build a functional app in minutes using our AI Form Generator. Just describe what you need in plain English, and our AI builds the app instantly. This lets you test complex workflows right away, rather than just building simple forms field-by-field.Simply sign up for your 15-Day Free Trial to get started.

Our AI Form Generator and AI Assistant build entire apps, add fields, and refine logic from simple text or voice commands. This goes beyond the AI data extraction features seen in tools like GoCanvas; our generative AI builds the app for you, slashing development time.

Yes. We are a true no-code application platform, not just a forms tool. While many tools handle simple “collect-and-send” forms, our platform excels at complex, multi-stage workflows. You can build processes with multiple users, approvals, and data hand-offs (e.g., an inspection triggering a work order) that other platforms can’t.

Our “offline-first” capability is more than just form caching. Our native apps provide 100% functionality offline, including access to complex workflows, business logic, and large datasets (e.g., customer lists, parts inventories). Your team can do their full job without a connection, and all data syncs reliably and automatically when they’re back online.

We offer a true, 100% White Label solution. You can publish apps under your own brand in the Apple and Google Play Stores, use custom domains, and remove all mentions of Appenate. It becomes your platform, providing a seamless brand experience for your team or clients.

We provide deep, enterprise-grade integration, not just simple connections. Our strength is in high-performance “Connectors” for core systems like SQL Server, Salesforce, SharePoint, and Power BI, plus a full REST API. This enables true, real-time, two-way data exchange with your systems, rather than just one-way data pushes or CSV exports.

We provide free, 1-on-1 training and unlimited support for life. Our experts will help you build a proof-of-concept and even migrate your first forms for free. You get a dedicated success partner. In contrast, personalized 1-on-1 training or dedicated form-building on platforms like GoCanvas often costs extra as a paid professional service.
